His clinical research has had a direct impact on everyday clinical dentistry, from the introduction of fibre posts in the early 90s to the introduction of cone beam computed tomography for endodontic diagnosis and treatment outcome assessments of endodontic diseases in 2007/2008, and more recently, the effect of race on decision making in endodontics and the effect of infection control on the outcome of root canal treatments

Dr Manocci has patented a novel device for the chairside detection of intracanal bacteria and several other devices.
